.SH NAME

|
kminspector \- run a program with the KDE memory leak tracer
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B kminspector
|
|
\fIprogram\fP [ \fIprogram-args\fP ]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBKMinspector\fP runs the given program, examines its memory
|
|
allocation behaviour using \fIlibktrace\fP and pipes the resulting
|
|
allocation tree through \fIless\fP.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The given program does not need to be specially compiled.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This utility is provided with KMtrace,
|
|
a KDE tool to assist with malloc debugging using
|
|
glibc's "mtrace" functionality. Unfortunately the mtrace that is part of
|
|
current (9/9/2000) glibc versions only logs the return-address of the
|
|
malloc/free call. The library included with KMtrace
|
|
logs a complete backtrace upon malloc/free.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.
